Creating this as a space to continue the Feb 2025 chat - quite frankly it's all starting to feel very, very real right now!

good luck today ladies! Hope all goes smoothly and you aren’t waiting too long! X

apple67cherry · 28/01/2025 10:01

Good luck, can't wait to hear updates xx

bumpkin34 · 28/01/2025 10:12

Is anyone actually in the wait and see when it's born club?
I feel I'm going to last to give birth and go into march 😭😂

Yes I am! Due 20th Feb and although my last two babies were pretty much bang on time, it wouldn’t surprise me if I am waiting into March this time 😅 when are you due?

Onthedouble123 · 28/01/2025 10:29

Good luck to everyone today! Hope you're all fairly close to the top of the list and not waiting around too long.
Sending vibes for smooth and calm experiences to all! Xx

elb1504 · 28/01/2025 10:59

I'm still waiting which is very boring, third on the list so not sure how long it'll be but feels like a long day already! Hope everyone else is further up the list!

Cheeseandcrackers123 · 28/01/2025 11:00

Looks from Facebook like we’ve had a spontaneous home birth this morning too so 28th January is clearly going to be a busy day. Good luck and can’t wait for more updates later xxx

retrievermum · 28/01/2025 12:03

@bumpkin34 also in the wait and see club, due on Saturday but no signs so far!

QuantumPanic · 28/01/2025 12:12

Thanks for the heads up, @Cheeseandcrackers123 !! Hopping over to FB.

bumpkin34 · 28/01/2025 12:21

@sohomum18 I'm due on the 23rd, first was 10 days late, second was 1 day late, so who knows this time 😂

@retrievermum. Ohhhh so close for you now 😍

Me! I’m due the 6th. Happy to go up to just over 41 weeks without induction… just waiting now haha. The waiting is HARD though.

elb1504 · 28/01/2025 13:50

I've been bumped off the list for today due to several emergencies😣 got to go back tomorrow, just got the logistics of the other child to sort which is more annoying!

jaybeez · 28/01/2025 13:57

Oh no @elb1504 how frustrating! Hopefully they can get you in tomorrow!

apple67cherry · 28/01/2025 13:57

apple67cherry · 27/01/2025 15:15

6 days until my induction on Sunday @ 39+0

So so impatient and excited now 😊

Update: 38+2 bloody show!!! wonder how long it'll be 🥺

retrievermum · 28/01/2025 14:11

Ahhhh @elb1504 that’s so disappointing! Hope you’re okay and that you get priority on the list for tomorrow!

@apple67cherry this is very exciting! Hope you’re feeling okay!

Oh no!!! How frustrating. ☹️

EastLondonCoffeeFiend · 28/01/2025 15:17

@elb1504 what a shame! Hope the childcare arrangements aren’t too difficult to rearrange 🤞

EastLondonCoffeeFiend · 28/01/2025 15:18

@bumpkin34 I’m in the wait and see club- due on the 5th. I’ll be pushing for a planned c section over an induction if I go overdue though!

elb1504 · 28/01/2025 15:28

Definitely disappointed and cried my eyes out as I think I'd worked myself up so much! But I'm happy to have another night with DS and in my comfy bed! And childcare has been loosely re-arranged, so fingers crossed for tomorrow!

ThisLimeDeer · 28/01/2025 15:30

Fingers crossed for tomorrow @elb1504 ! Let’s hope tomorrow is the day and for tonight perhaps a film on, feet up, favourite food and family time ♥️

Kumquat89 · 28/01/2025 16:05

@elb1504 so frustrating. As @ThisLimeDeer said try to give some extra TLC to yourself and go back strong tomorrow. 💪 you’ve got it! I’m a firm believer of things that are meant to happen in certain ways. Also is the lunar new year tomorrow? Baby will be born on a special day. 😊

@apple67cherry yay! Things are happening! It will be great if you don’t need the induction in the end I suppose 🤗 crossing my fingers for you

Lunalovegod · 28/01/2025 16:11

@bumpkin34 another one here in the wait and see club! Due next Sunday 9th ☺️ my birthday's the 5th and partners is the 7th, so very excited to see when he'll arrive

Redapple21 · 28/01/2025 17:13

Oh no @elb1504 that's so frustrating, I would cry too!! I'm booked in tomorrow so fingers crossed for at least 2 Chinese New Year babies 🤞🏻❤️ xx

Redapple21 · 28/01/2025 17:15

Good luck @apple67cherry that sounds promising that baby could soon be on their way 🤞🏻 xx

He's between 2/5 and 3/5 engaged now and since the bloody show, triage asked me to come in for a cervix check and potentially a sweep today to see if things start before my induction. So exciting :)
